Off the Record

Berry Sexy Too

By Diogenes (articles ) | December 04, 2006 1:52 AM

The LA Times reports that the Archdiocese is not only a landlord, but a landlord with a fully developed post-Conciliar sense of social responsibility.

The L.A. Archdiocese seems to have some cushion against selling churches and schools. Its nonreligious properties run the gamut of real estate investments: as varied as undeveloped desert parcels, six dozen single-family homes, the land beneath Goudy Honda in Alhambra and a Mission Hills self-storage business, county assessor records show. One property in the fashion district is home to a number of stores, including the Berry Sexy Too clothing boutique.

Please stand for the Creed.

    Fifty suits settled for $60 million, with 500 more in the pipeline. Looks like Mahoney is down to his last pair of Prada slippers.

    The diocese had extensive holdings on the Wilshire Miracle Mile at one time. Maybe it still does. Cdl. Mahony might want to build another cathedral one of these days when he gets tired of the monstrosity that he had built. The property might come in handy.
